Yummy Recipe - Candy Cane Treats

Are you like me....the holidays are over and you are left with all these candy canes that no one ate or seems like they are going to eat? Well, I found this receipe...I love to recycle - I had not thought of recycling food, but here you go... These would be great for Valentine's Day right?? I am going to try this with the girl scout troop. The receipe is really easy. Take your candy canes, using wax paper, lay out your candy canes in pairs facing each other. Melt bakers chocolate or chocolate bark in the microwave. Place the melted chocolate carefully into a piping bag or a ziplock baggie, do not fill more than half full. Snip a corner off the baggie if that is what you are using. Fold the excess piping bag over your hand or the baggie and gently squeeze the chocolate out of the bag and into the space between the hearts. Working before the chocolate sets, you can add sprinkles to them to decorate. Allow time to harden, I let mine harden in the refrigerator for a couple hours. This is a great way to use up those left over candy canes that seem to be in the house still come Easter. Hope you enjoy yours. Peachy Heart Hugs, Debbie
